Bin Laden Appears to be Winning
It looks to me like the goals of Osama are being carried out.
The people of America are very frightened.
When there is a difference of opinion between America and America's allies Osama steps up to the plate and hits a home run with just an audio tape. Divide and conquer. Cause Americans to cower in fear.
What are we afraid of?
The 9/11/2001 acts caused 3,000 deaths.
We have over 30,000 firearm related deaths with over 12,000 of them Murder Every year.
We have over 41,000 traffic related deaths with over 15,000 of them alcohol related fatalities Every year.
In order to "Protect" Americans this administration has enacted legislation and Executive decrees that reduce the freedoms enjoyed by Americans. This is just what Osama wants.
If we are to have a free and open society we will have to put the fear away. Put the attacks in perspective and move on with our lives.
Are you so scared of Osama you are willing to give the Federal Government the amount of control over your day to day activities they ask in order to protect you from him?
I'm not scared of Osama. I resist the drumbeat of fear coming from the media and from Washington.
